Charles Spurgeon Commentary John 1:30

"This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man who is become before me: for he was before me." — John 1:30 (ASV)

This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me.

Ah! how infinitely before John; how before him? Having no beginning of days, before him in his exalted nature, before him in his superior rank and office!
